Intro: CCAm
I'm the living result
FG
I'm a man who's been hurt a little too much
CE7AmF
And I've tasted the bitterness of my own tears
CE7AmF
Sadness, is all my lonely heart can feel
CFCF
I can't stand up for falling down
CFCF
I can't stand up for falling down
CAm
Simple though love is, still it confused me
FG
Why I'm not loved, the way I should be
CE7AmF
Now I've lived with heartaches, and I've roomed with fear
CE7AmF
I've dealt with despair, and I've wrestled with tears
CFCF
I can't stand up for falling down
CFCF
I can't stand up for falling down
FFm
The vow that we made
CC7
You broke it in two
FFmG
But that don't stop me from loving you
CFCF
I can't stand up for falling down
CFCF
I can't stand up for falling down
